Celebrate Earth Day - and Women's Leadership

We know women officeholders make a difference in many ways, but this Earth Day is a good time to revisit research done by our friends at Rachel's Network, where CAWP director Debbie Walsh is on the Circle of Advisors. Their report shows that women of both parties in Congress lead the way "to preserve environmental integrity and public health." One more reason we need more women in office at every level!

Next Step RUN!, a documentary film project by director Pam Maus, tells the stories of four women who are running for elective office in 2014. Next Step RUN! will be released in Spring of 2015 with the aim of encouraging more women to run for elective office. Invest in Next Step RUN! by contributing to their Kickstarter fundraising campaign before Friday, May 23, 2014.
